Glory

It wasn't until Plains ran past third base that Yamaguchi's pass came late and flew into the infield.

Passing the ball over a distance of seventy or eighty meters, Yamaguchi has the ability to throw the ball back, which is already amazing. You can't count on him to pass the ball well.

The ball bounced once on the ground, and the direction of the ball was about ten meters away from the intermediate pitching mound and flew into the infield.

It's over!

Many fans of the Brotherhood of Hearts subconsciously closed their eyes. They couldn't bear to see the next scene. It is conceivable that Akagi, who was three games ahead, may have come to an end.

"Bang!"

"Out!!"

After waiting for these people, they opened their eyes again and looked at everything on the court in disbelief.

In the position of the catcher, Aoi Ren used his gloves to touch Akatsuki steadily.

Who can tell them what happened just now?

Hayashi grabbed Kobayashi's arm excitedly. The changes on the court just now were really wonderful. He was really thankful that he hadn't blinked just now.

Kobayashi is exactly the same.

Just now, Sawamura on the pitcher's mound not only planned out the location of the baseball in advance and prepared for the past to catch the ball but also gave a set to the people from Tenryuji Middle School.

When the baseball came, Sawamura deliberately did not leave the mound but continued to stay there.

It is precisely because of this that the base running instructor of Tenryuji Temple predicted that Yamaguchi made a mistake in passing the ball and that no one from Akagi caught the ball. Then he gave Akatsuki a secret signal and let Akatsuki hit home plate.

Originally, if Yamaguchi could throw the ball directly into the infield, Sawamura would not have had time to catch it. But the ball bounced off the ground once, which gave Sawamura time, and he rushed out to catch the ball and then passed the ball to home plate.

As a catcher, Ren was unequivocal. In direct dialogue with Plains, he defeated the famous Nagano club.

"Out!"

Just such a super long shot, it flew away~

The players from Tenryuji felt a little unreal.

Could it be that this time, God is not on their side? Ordinarily, even if Akatsuki couldn't run back, he would have no problem getting to third base. How can such a long outfield play fly?

The assistant coach of Tenryuji Temple, his bowels are about to regret it.

"Damn, it's almost. If I had known, it would have been better to have Akatsuki stop at third base."

No one is out, there is someone at third base!

Even if Akagi now uses super infield defense, they can still use hit and run or use goofy to score a point.

"People would rather take the risk and give us such a big bait, how can they allow us not to take the bait?"

Chasing the bases and aggressively attacking are the styles of every strong team. These things have been integrated into their blood to varying degrees. It is not the style of Tenryuji Temple to let runners give up when they see an opportunity. If they really do that, then maybe the offensive and defensive system of Tenryuji Temple will collapse.

At this time, the old fox of Tenryuji Temple, Hiromitsu Yamano, had already fully grasped the intention of Sawamura's formation.

Why was second base empty, and why Yamaguchi was moved from infield to center field.

The reason is very simple because Yamaguchi is the only one in Akagi's team who can throw the ball from the outfield back to the infield. The young man is worthy of his 80kg weight and has amazing arm strength.

Of course, his passing also has weaknesses, that is, his accuracy is poor and the deviation is astonishing. At this time, if the shortstop and second baseman stay in their original positions, they will inevitably interfere with Sawamura on the pitcher's mound to catch the ball.

So, Sawamura simply moved them away, so that Sawamura could see the pass from center field. Others also deliberately dodge, Sawamura can easily judge the landing point and come to catch the ball.

Of course, leaving the second base empty has a deeper purpose.

When people cross first base, second base, third base, and these bases, they will subconsciously observe the defense, so generally, they will not run with all their strength. Sawamura deliberately vacated second base so that runners could go to second base without any scruples.

Once they got to second base, they entered the scoring lap, and they certainly didn't want to miss the chance to run back to home plate if they had the chance.

Sawamura also took advantage of this to set a trap for the people at Tenryuji. In this way, after the batter hits the outfield, he is either at second base or chooses to return to home plate. The time to hit third base is not easy.

Sawamura just now did not choose to rush in the direction the ball flew in the first time, which was a bit risky. But that risk, he had to take. At that time, Akagi had only one choice, and that was to lure the plain to the home plate and touch him at the home plate.

Otherwise, if the third base is on the plain, there is almost no way for Akagi to avoid losing points.

Akagi can use bunts to advance, hit and run, and get a point. There is no reason why the tyrannical Tenryu Temple can't do it.

"What an interesting little guy."

Hiromitsu Yamano looked at Sawamura with admiration in his eyes. He was sorry for his previous judgment.

Although his pitching is not as strong as Nanami Haruna, as a pitcher, Sawamura's level of trouble is no less than Nanami Haruna's.

Even with Yamano's decades of experience, he has never seen such an effect with a 125-kilometer straight ball.

"This boy, he will become a great weapon in the future!"

The game continues!

When Sawamura found the batter from Tenryuji, had already started aiming at the straight ball that he floated, and immediately changed his pitch. He constantly adjusts the range of his rise and the tempo of his pitches.

In this way, although it was inevitable to be hit high and ground, and even occasionally be sent to the outfield by the hitter, he managed to hold two rounds without any risk.

In the fifth round of the game, the two sides fought many times, but the tyrannical Tenryuji Temple never conquered the wonderful defense of Akagi Middle School. There was an outfield hit, but no points.

At the end of the five innings, the score between the two sides stopped at 1:0.

Akagi Middle School, away from the final victory, is only short of the last six outs.

When the fans of the original Brotherhood of Hearts came to watch the game, they thought that although Akagi performed amazingly, the gap between the two sides was huge. It should be impossible for Akagi to have a chance to defeat Tenryuji.

I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that in the end, it turned out to be such a result.

After five innings of the game, Tenryuji still hadn't scored a single point from Sawamura.

Akagi is like an unbeatable cockroach, tenacious and scary.

"Even though the defense is so bad, it even forced Tenryuji Temple to not break the duck's egg."

"It's terrifying!"

"What's that pitcher's name? It feels like he's more powerful than Nanami Haruna?"

"It seems, it's called Sawamura, Sawamura Eijun."

…

The audience were talking about Sawamura. From this moment on, Sawamura became completely famous. Although his suppression of Nagano Metropolitan was considered a blockbuster at the beginning, the circle was small after all, and the persuasiveness of a game was limited.

But it's different now. The two kings in Nagano Prefecture, Nagano Metropolitan, and Tenryuji Middle School have been continuously suppressed. Sawamura's strength has finally been recognized, and there is no doubt about it.
